Free [UK] elearning resources from The Beeb to cease next week

The BBC has been required to suspend its free online learning service from 
March 20th after complaints from a number of large educational publishers 
concerned that their profits will suffer if a Government funded free 
learning resource for parents and schools is established.

Until March 20th it will still be possible to download many of the 
activities for offline use once the online service is no longer available. 
Sadly it looks like most of the content may never appear, but there are 
still plenty of useful activities to download for various subjects and ages 
including all of the SEN Field Studies environments.

It is unclear if these resources will be back online - grab them while you 
can!
